lirik lagu gretchen peters – black ribbons
[verse 1]
i built this house with my bare hands
on the sh0r-s of louisian
took my sweet cher jolie-ann
for my own – my very own
now every man has got his pride
i tried to shelter and provide
but i can’t stop this poison tide
rollin’ in – rollin’ in
[chorus]
now i’ve nothing left to give her
no answer to her prayers
black ribbons on the water
black ribbons for her hair
[verse 2]
came the wind, came the rain
we defied that hurricane
and we built this house again
stone by stone – stone by stone
but in the gulf of mexico
5000 feet below
oh the devil’s blood it flows
on and on – on and on
[chorus]
[bridge]
oh how her eyes they used to shine
fairest in evangeline
now they stare so cold and blind
through my soul – oh lord my soul
[outro]
she was tangled in the saltgr-ss
not a bullet left to spare
black ribbons on the water
black ribbons for her hair
